Jan Levine: Canada defeats Sweden in overtime, US plays Finland tonight, Othmann Rangers topics in the 4 Nations Face-off

From last blog:

Sarcasm and dark humor are difficult to interpret in text only form, but you get it ---I'm needling. Saturday is going to be FUN!

Tonybere --- I'm going to be cracking open some new 9 year bourbon for the occasion, you know the good stuff from the USA

Well, that stuff isn't on our shelves anymore thanks to your Richard-in-Chief. So, I guess I'll have to settle for Crown Royal.
Or, one of my bottles of fine Tequila, since Mexico is still our friend.

Nice write-up, Jan. Thanks!
Although, one thing I would pick out from your stanza on the OT is that while you stated Sweden carried that extra time before the goal by Marner, McKinnon had 3 golden opportunities to end it in the first couple of shifts. I'd call it a pretty even period, but that may be my bias making me nitpicky.

Good point. I just thought Binnington made two spectacular saves to keep it tied.

And thanks to the first Lady Donna Trump team USA is going to hear quite alot of jeers tonight.

Good place to be. One of the few places in your country that may slightly care about this game

No problem

I feel like Im watching Slap Shot when Tkachuk's are out there.

That was Fox’s hardest hit of his career

I guess concerns that the players won’t go all out and be physical were greatly unfounded

Lots of empty lower bowl seats on TV. Maybe they shouldn't have made them only affordable for richies...

Im pretty sure they shorted Miller an assist on the Boldy goal.
